A electric car uses either a DC or AC motor. Typically they use DC motors.
Yes, it has one electric motor and one gas powered engine. The engine creates electric power to turn the electric motor.
Battery powered cars use a small battery to power an electric motor to drive the wheels.
It depends on the motor. The fan is driven by an electric motor, and it can use a dc motor (as in a car) or an ac motor (as in a house). They are not interchangeable.
Distance and time do not necessarily matter when calculating the efficiency of an electric car motor. Electric cars are best for small distance commutes.
An electric car is powered by a large electric motor. This motor is powered by the use of magnets in a coil inside the motor. When electric current is run through the motor, the drive shaft spins. This type of motor has an advantage over internal combustion engines because it offers all its torque at 0 rpm, thousands less than internal combustion engines. This makes the car quicker to start and accelerate.
An electric car is like a Radio Controlled toy car in that it uses a battery and an electric motor. An electric car might also be compared to an elevator that uses an electric motor to move people in an efficient and pollution free way. (ignoring that the power has to be made somewhere, somehow.) Older electric cars had simple technology, like an RC toy car, but modern electric cars use electronic motors that wouldn't even work without the electronics.
An electric motor has no cylinders.
Starter, alternator, any part with an electric motor, because they use magnets to operate.
An electric motor.
An electric motor.
An electric car and an internal combustion engined car of the same make and design otherwise would require the same amount of power to operate. An electric car is more efficient as the motor does not run unless it is required to push the car along. If the car is rolling of it's own inertia, no energy needs to be sent to the electric motor, but the ic motor requirs fuel to keep running. At traffic lights and stop lights, ic engines need to keep running or use energy to start up again.
The main difference is in hybrid cars there are a small petrol engine and a electric motor. When the car is driving along at slower speeds the Electric motor is driving the car while the petrol engine recharges the battery but when the speed is greater the Engine And Electric Motor Drives The Car
